BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Aon revenue flat in third quarter, profit increases

Aon P.L.C. on Friday reported almost flat revenue for the third quarter as 4% organic growth was offset by foreign exchange changes and divestitures.

The brokerage and consulting firm reported $2.75 billion in revenue for the third quarter of 2016, up fractionally compared with the same period last year.

Revenue for its Risk Solutions segment, which includes retail brokerage and reinsurance, increased 2% compared with the prior year quarter driven by 3% organic growth in commissions and fees and a 1% increase in commissions and fees related to acquisitions, net of divestitures, partially offset by a 2% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation, Aon said in a statement.

Retail insurance brokerage revenue inched up 2% and reinsurance was flat. 

The results reflect “solid organic revenue growth across both Risk and HR Solutions, effective capital management, and strong double-digit growth in free cash flow,” Greg Case, president and CEO said in a statement.

Revenue for Aon's HR Solutions, which deals with employee benefits, decreased 2% compared with the prior year quarter driven by a 4% decrease in commissions and fees resulting from net of divestitures and a 2% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation, the broker said in the statement.  

Net income for the quarter increased 4% to $314 million.
